Chandigarh, June 1
The state BJP on Monday alleged improper distribution of free ration sent by the Centre for 1.81 crore people in Punjab.
It also disclosed the party’s expansion plan in Punjab, where it contests 23 of the 117 Assembly segments.
Talking to mediapersons through a videoconference, state BJP chief Ashwani Sharma said there seemed to be a scam in the distribution of ration, which they would expose in coming days. He said the BJP would reach out to 15 lakh families through a campaign from June 10 to 20, detailing achievements of the second tenure of the Modi government, mainly the way it helped the poor during the lockdown period.
During the personal contact programme, BJP activists would give a letter from the PM and a folder of achievements of one year of the Union Government to every household. Three virtual rallies would be organised in three zones of Punjab from June 20-30. Besides, about 350 virtual interactions would be organised in all 117 constituencies. All morchas of party would distribute masks and sanitisers in towns and villages.
